Shows the relationship of ethics and historiography over time and in different cultural settings, and so helps readers to appreciate the different ways in which historians have thought about how the world ought to be and helps readers to appreciate how the boundaries between ethical theories can be fuzzy. Written for those new to, or with little familiarity with historiography, so makes very complex questions easy to understand. Introduces readers to both well-known and lesser-appreciated historians and ethical theorists, ensuring they have a variety of case studies upon which to draw in their own work.
